Digital Pedagogy in the Humanities: Concepts, Models, and Experiments, edited by Rebecca Frost Davis, Matthew K. Gold, Katherine D. Harris, and Jentery Sayers, is a dynamic open-access collection currently in development in github (github.com/curateteaching/digitalpedagogy) and on MLA Commons (digitalpedagogy.commons.mla.org/). Each entry in the collection focuses on a keyword in the field of digital pedagogy (ranging from “queer” to “interface” to “professionalization”) and is curated by an experienced practitioner, who briefly contextualizes a concept and then provides ten supporting artifacts, such as syllabi, prompts, exercises, lesson plans, and student work, drawn from courses, classrooms, and projects across the humanities. New keywords will be added in batches throughout 2015-2016, with fifty keywords to be included in the final project. Currently, the second batch of keywords (Failure, Multimodal, Poetry, Professionalization, Project Management, Race, Sexuality, Text Analysis) is in open peer review on MLA Commons: https://digitalpedagogy.commons.mla.org/

The MLA has created a prototype platform for the ultimate publication of this project.  This demo and workshop will give an overview of the project, demonstrate the prototype platform, and invite you to try it out.  Please help us make this digital pedagogy resource as useful to you as possible by sharing your feedback on current and desired functionality. We will also will ask participants to reflect on and share their definition of digital pedagogy, as well as keywords, and artifacts. This crowd-sourced definition will be aggregated and analyzed through Voyant text analysis, with the results presented in our github repository: github.com/curateteaching Participants can also tweet their definition to our hashtag #curateteaching
